What Separates Firehouse Grants From Others?

Firehouse Grants’ strategy for success is built on a fundamental understanding of emergency services, superior technical writing, and attention to detail.

We combine all of these elements to produce unparalleled grants with an impressive success rate. Firehouse Grants knows that successful grant writing requires more than a description of equipment. We work closely with our clients to understand their goals and objectives.

We carefully integrate key elements about the department, community, desired equipment and its benefits, and the organization’s financial need. Armed with this understanding, we ensure that the entire application precisely communicates how the department’s needs are aligned with the grant program’s objectives. After the grant is submitted, we continue to work with you by initiating letters of support and pursuing other avenues to improve the chance of success.
